Biodex Gait Trainer® 3

The Biodex Gait Trainer 3, is suitable for all rehabilitation pathologies. It is designed with an instrumented deck that issues both audio and visual real-time biofeedback to prompt patients into their correct gait pattern. Step length, step speed and right-to-left time distribution (step symmetry) are directly addressed; patient footfall is compared to desired footfall step after step, both on the display in real time and documented in an easy to read histogram. The open-platform design enables the therapist to assist limb advancement when necessary and accommodates the Biodex Unweighing System for Body Weight Support Treadmill Training (BWSTT).


Features include:

  • Objective Documentation – Exercise Summary and Progress Reports track progress and document outcomes – ideal for insurance reimbursement. Show need, progress and outcome for specific gait parameters, including:
    • Average Walking speed over time
    • Total exercise time
    • Total distance and steps taken
    • Average steps length: RT vs LT
    • Step length variability: RT vs LT
    • Time on each foot: RT vs LT
  • Normative Data – Age and gender-based for comparison to healthy populations for assessment of patient results.
  • Audio and Visual Biofeedback – Motivates patients with real-time biofeedback, prompting proper gait patterns. Biofeedback helps patients stay “on target” in each phase of rehabilitation; steps lengthen, step speed increases and symmetry improves.
  • Heart Rate Monitoring – Polar® contact handgrips (telemetry compatible) ensures proper training intensity.
  • Larger Display – Features 12.1″ color touch-screen display, powered by a Windows CE operating system.
  • Expanded Connectivity – Allows connection to larger monitors and LCD projectors to enhance interaction for visually impaired patients.
  • USB Compatibility – Accommodates external keyboard, a mouse, printing devices for remote operation and USB memory devices for data transfer and software upgrades.
  • Patient Data Collection Software (optional) – Facilitates download and transfer of patient data, stored in patient folders for archiving, reporting or exporting as a CSV file. Transferring patient data allows for unlimited storage capacity.
